Jianghu are all masters

224.

The corner of Pei Jun's mouth twitched, and he said after a long while, "Why are you asking this?"

Xiao Mobai was a little embarrassed: "Although this gossip is exciting, I usually don't write about my friends' family members."

Xing Yan's face on the roof suddenly became bloody, and she looked at Pei Junze full of hope.

As long as Pei Jun admits it, she can escape!

But Pei Jun was silent.

He didn't know how else he could speak. In the current situation, with so many uninformed people here, he was afraid that one word of his would cause some family conflicts. In the end, all mistakes were the fault of Pei Wuluan.

Seeing that Pei Jun was silent, Xiao Mobai sighed deeply, feeling that he had understood.

He put away the pen and paper, with a slightly disappointed look on his face.

"Brother Pei, don't worry." Xiao Mobai patted his chest and assured him, "I still have principles and bottom lines in life."

Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that he seemed to have discovered some unique key.

He doesn't write about friends and family of friends?

It turns out that Zhao Chengyang and Puyang Jing are not friends in his eyes?

Pei Jun frowned and asked: "The emperor..."

"Oh, he gives a lot of money. You have to have initial funds to start a business." Xiao Mobai's expression remained unchanged, "I'm very principled. I don't like to be friends with the boss."

Pei Junze: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

She Shuyi, who was chatting with Qi Chaoyun at the side, came over and asked them: "Are you ready? If you are, let's go?"

Before Zhang Xiaoyuan had time to tell Pei Junze about the Tianming Pavilion, the matter was urgent, and he needed Pei Junze to send news to the Wulin League and the Demon Sect as soon as possible, so as to seek the help of Pei Junze and Mo Wentian to fight against Tianming Pavilion together. But at this moment, there were so many people present, it was inconvenient for him to speak out about this matter, and if he needed to pick a good time when outsiders could not hear him, Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that there was no more suitable place than on the carriage.

It just so happened that Master Uncle and Qi Chaoyun chatted so well, Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that this seemed to be a pretty good reason.

Zhang Xiaoyuan looked at Pei Junze and said, "Brother Pei, we haven't talked about the past for a while—"

Speaking of this, he turned his eyes slightly, and She Shuyi immediately understood, smiled with Qi Chaoyun, and said: "Master Qi, if there is nothing wrong, why don't we talk in the carriage?"

Qi Chaoyun could see that Zhang Xiaoyuan had something to say to Pei Junze, so he nodded in accordance with She Shuyi's intention, and Pei Jun called Xing Yan from the roof to come down with the others, and he climbed into Zhang Xiaoyuan and Lu Zhaoming's carriage .

They set off. On the way, Zhang Xiaoyuan told Pei Junze about Tianming Pavilion and Lin Yi, but temporarily concealed the part related to the second senior brother, saying that Lin Yi might let Tianming Pavilion People went to Fengji County to search for something, but they didn't know what Lin Yi was looking for.

He thought that the second senior brother's matter was too complicated, and if he wanted to tell it, there would be a lot of involvement, he could not make the decision alone, he had better go back and discuss with his master and second senior brother before deciding whether to tell President Pei about this matter.

Pei Jun was obviously very surprised. He obviously didn't expect that Lin Yi would have anything to do with the imperial court, but it happened that Pei Wuluan had been looking for clues about Lin Yi and Tianming Pavilion, and now they had this clue in their hands. Don't be afraid. Lin Yi will not show any flaws in the future.

Pei Jun promised to write a letter to Pei Wuluan during his break today, and from him, Zhang Xiaoyuan also knew some ways for Pei Wuluan to deal with this matter.

There are many affairs in the Wulin League, he can't get away, and he just investigates secretly. A few days ago, Mei Ling'an made an excuse to visit Zixia Tower and dragged Lin Yi in Zixia Tower. Going to Fengji County, that person will definitely not be Lin Yi.

As for Mo Wentian, Pei Jun didn't know where he went at all, he was used to walking alone, although he didn't know his whereabouts, he should have gone to investigate the Tianming Pavilion.

At this point, Pei Jun couldn't help but sighed deeply, and said: "The world is full of dangers, and Fengji County is really simpler."

Zhang Xiaoyuan muttered in a low voice: "There is nothing wrong with this world..."

Pei Jun was about to speak, but inexplicably heard a slightly strange cooing sound from the other side of the carriage. He couldn't help but look sideways, and saw a familiar-looking man stuffed in the corner of the other side of the carriage. chicken coop.

Pei Jun was stunned for a while before slowly recovering.

He had long forgotten what he wanted to say just now, and just raised his finger to the chicken coop in a daze, with a slightly dazed look on his face.

"Isn't this... the chicken you said you wanted to give to She's Mansion?" Pei Jun asked, "Why did you get it back?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "I'm just... just practicing thrift and bringing back the used empty chicken coops!"

Pigeon: "Hoo?"

Pei Junze: "There must be something inside..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan covered the chicken coop: "No!"

Pei Jun frowned: "That day, I felt a little strange. I heard the sound in the cage...why did it look like a pigeon?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

After he finished speaking, he saw the fat pigeon poking its head out of the gap in the chicken coop.

After Lu Zhaoming's long-term hard training, this fat pigeon has finally become so thin that it looks like a pigeon. It is no longer a problem for it to fly for a long time, but now Zhang Xiaoyuan does not want it to lose weight so quickly.

He could only comfort himself that all the pigeons in the world look similar, and Pei Jun should not be able to recognize the identity of this pigeon.

Pei Junze: "Isn't this the pigeon that Mr. Xiao kept in the Zuixian Pavilion?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

"Zhang Shaoxia." Pei Jun was very surprised, "You are not also copying manuscripts for the secrets of the world, are you?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that he might be doomed.

Eldest brother is sitting outside, last time when Lu Zhaoming learned that he had sold the news to Mei Lenan, he slapped him on the palm, this time if elder brother knew that he was still writing gossip for some secret anecdote , I am afraid that the ruler will be aimed at his ass.

But Lu Zhaoming just looked back at him and didn't say anything.

Pei Jun said with emotion: "It turns out that Zhang Shaoxia is also a fellow."

He couldn't wait to reveal his identities to Zhang Xiaoyuan, but Zhang Xiaoyuan remembered that the name he used when transcribing the gossip for the secrets of the world was the "unknown person" on the head of the elder brother. There are those four words on it, but I don't know why... He looked at Lu Zhaoming's back leaning outside the car door, and he was really speechless.

Pei Jun followed his gaze, as if he understood something, he couldn't help but smiled, and said: "Since this is Zhang Shaoxia's little secret, don't worry, Pei will never tell it."

As if he meant something, Zhang Xiaoyuan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly felt hot, and turned his head hastily, pretending that he was admiring the scenery outside the carriage.

Yes, no matter what Pei Junze was saying, he couldn't understand.

……

They rushed to Beijing a few months ago. There was plenty of time at that time, and they were not in a hurry. If they encountered beautiful scenery along the way, Qi Chaoyun would even take the initiative to invite them to take a look together.

But this time back to Fengji County was different.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was worried that Tianming Pavilion would find out the whereabouts of the second senior brother before they did, and he could not wait to rush back all the way.Qi Chaoyun is a scholar, Xiao Mobai is not good at martial arts, the two of them can't bear the pain of traveling long distances around the clock, and Pei Jun is still pretending to be a weak teacher, so after a few days, everyone parted temporarily, Zhang Xiaoyuan and the other three Go ahead and rush back to Fengji County.

Among the three, Zhang Xiaoyuan's martial arts is the weakest, but his body is much better than ordinary people who don't practice martial arts, but even so, after traveling day and night for a month, he feels that his whole body is about to fall apart. Eldest brother seems to be a bit overwhelmed, but fortunately they have already returned to Fengji County in the late autumn, looking at the familiar scenery and the peaceful and ordinary town under the mountain, Zhang Xiaoyuan's heart is slightly relieved .

Fengji County is not big, if Tianming Pavilion comes here, they should be able to notice it after walking around the city.

The three of them did not stay in the city, they climbed the mountain for half a day, and finally returned to the Shimen before dark, and Zhang Xiaoyuan stood outside the towering mountain gate. Eight times, there are all pavilions, towers and pavilions, and there is even a rather large martial arts training ground, and many houses are still under construction.He was dumbfounded, turned his head to look at She Shuyi stiffly, and asked, "Uncle Shi Shi Shi Shi, what's going on?"

"The emperor gave you a lot of money to buy your news, and I sent it back in advance." She Shuyi said, "My brother hired the best workers in Jiangnan. I thought we could finish the work before we came back, but unfortunately something happened. , we seem to have come back a little earlier."

Zhang Xiaoyuan was stunned: "But...but I didn't answer the emperor's question?"

"You will be charged for asking questions, and you will be charged after you answer them." She Shuyi smiled at him, looking like a profiteer, "Master Mei also sends money here every month, saying that she has an agreement with you, oh, I also added some money to my own house, bought a few shops, and should be able to earn thousands of taels of silver every month, at least to be able to feed and clothe myself.”

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

"I wanted to buy some more land." She Shuyi rubbed her chin, "But don't rush everything. If I buy too many things at once, your master may be suspicious."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Isn't that too much now? !

He turned his head to look at the elder brother, but he found that the only thing in his eyes was the training ground.

Although the place is smaller than Sanhua Palace, it is much better than their previous small courtyard. Zhang Xiaoyuan followed Lu Zhaoming and happened to see Jiang Jianyu gesticulating with the workers on the edge of the training ground. It seems that he wants to add a few wooden figurines and stone piles to the training ground, and he is repeatedly emphasizing: "...It must be very strong, my senior brother is quite rough."

Lu Zhaoming: "..."

Inexplicably, Zhang Xiaoyuan remembered the inner thoughts of senior senior brother persecuting second senior brother, interrupted Jiang Jianyu in a hurry, and shouted: "Second senior brother!"

Jiang Jianyu looked back suddenly, extremely happy: "Xiao Yuan? You are back!"

Zhang Xiaoyuan was holding the sword box he bought in the capital to give to Jiang Jianyu, at this time he just passed it forward, stuffed it into Jiang Jianyu's arms, and said, "I bought the sword for you in the capital!"

Jiang Jianyu was slightly taken aback, and took it with trembling hands, as if he was extremely moved.

"You gave me a gift." Jiang Jianyu's voice trembled, "Junior brother has grown up and is sensible."

Lu Zhaoming clicked his tongue lightly, turned his head away, and didn't even look at Jiang Jianyu.

It just so happened that Wang Henian was nearby, and Jiang Jianyu's yell had startled him just now. He slammed open the door and trotted all the way with his peerless lightness kung fu. He was right in front of several people, before he could say "the disciples have lost weight" Exit, but his eyes fell on the gift box in Jiang Jianyu's hand.

Wang Henian paused immediately, and looked at Zhang Xiaoyuan, his eyes full of expectation.

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

It's over, I was too anxious to come back, so I only bought a sword for the second senior brother.

Although he also bought some odds and ends and planned to give them to Hualiuque and others when he came back, it seems that those things are not good for the elders...

Hmm...seriously speaking, it seems that he... really forgot about Master.

Wang Henian looked at him eagerly.

Zhang Xiaoyuan froze in place, motionless.

what to do!Master will be very sad!

Wang Henian seemed to understand a little bit.

"Xiao Yuan." He looked sad, "You must have forgotten to be a teacher."

Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't know how to answer.

"Most of the things sold in the Jingzhong market are vulgar things, and Master is an outsider." Lu Zhaoming suddenly said, "I don't think those things are worthy of Master."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Why?Why did the elder brother suddenly flatter his master?

Lu Zhaoming said: "That's why the younger brother has prepared a unique gift for the master."

He looked sideways at Zhang Xiaoyuan, and suddenly a line of words appeared above his empty head.

"Follow it."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan looked at the words that appeared one after another above his head, and could vaguely see that it should be the content of the secret book of exercises, which was somewhat different from the sword manual he had memorized, but he could also see some connection, maybe it was the upper and lower volumes.

He bit the bullet and put on a posture of endorsing the book, and then read it quickly, maybe he was tense and too nervous, but there was nothing wrong with a word, and Wang Henian was originally disappointed, but now he is indescribably relieved.

"Good boy, so you have already memorized the contents of the other few volumes." Wang Henian stretched out his hand and touched Zhang Xiaoyuan's head, as if he was very moved, "Your hard work is the best gift you can give to Master!"
